A routine seal on cut edges kept a job dry during a storm
I used to overlook sealing the cut edges on vinyl siding, considering it unnecessary. After several projects with moisture issues, I began sealing every cut prior to installation. Recently, a heavy rain occurred just after we completed a side, and the client mentioned the interior remained dry. This minor practice prevents return trips for repairs, which I appreciate. Now, a sealant tube stays in my tool belt for convenience. That brief moment per cut avoids significant future trouble.
